As enterprises shift toward this mindset, platforms like Myota are redefining what resilience means. By embedding security directly into the data at write-time, using patented “Shard and Spread” technology and architectural immutability, Myota moves organizations past traditional, vulnerable backup workflows. Instead of relying on manual intervention or multi-step recovery processes, Myota delivers instant, automated point-in-time reconstruction, ensuring true business continuity across distributed environments without the overhead of redundant copies.
The ISG Buyers Guide is distilled from continuous market and product research using ISG’s proprietary Value Index methodology. The evaluation incorporates a structured assessment of customer experience and product experience criteria, spanning 41 function points in Capability and 16 function points in Platform, to provide enterprise buyers with an objective tool for software vendor selection, RFI/RFP processes, and risk reduction.
The research highlights how data recovery platforms have evolved from periodic backup utilities into strategic resilience systems that support continuous data protection, rapid restoration, and cyber recovery across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
